Hook for company-show-location

[joca-bt]

I have company-show-location binded so that I can show the definitions while completing ((define-key company-active-map (kbd "M-.") #'company-show-location)). However, I'd like to recenter the buffer where the definition is being shown. Is there a hook for this already?

Perhaps this will work for you?

1. Add recenter-other-window to company--electric-commands.
2. After the location is shown (with C-w by default), you can recenter its window with C-M-S-l (the default binding for recenter-other-window).

Alternatively, you can use advice

(defun my/recenter-other-window (&rest _args)
  (recenter-other-window '(4)))

(advice-add 'company-show-location :after #'my/recenter-other-window)

Yeah, it's more-or-less what I ended up doing.
